The trick is to uuencode it. Here's a snippet from a shell script I use to convert an HTML document with images to a .pdf and mail it to myself:
echo "Latency graphs for" `date` > /tmp/mailphcsc.$$
echo " " >>/tmp/mailphcsc.$$
htmldoc --webpage -f /tmp/latencyphcsc.pdf latencyphcsc.html
uuencode /tmp/latencyphcsc.pdf latencyphcsc.pdf >>/tmp/mailphcsc.$$
cat /tmp/mailphcsc.$$ | mailx -s "Latency Graphs" rje_at_ppoone.com
I'm using a tmp file since I'm adding text around the attachment. It can probably be done with just a:
cat spreadsheet.xls | uuencode spreadsheet.xls | mail \ rje_at_ppoone.com
-rje
